Re: Q&A 1/15-1/22

A blonde female police officer pulls over a blonde gal in a convertible sports car for speeding.<br />She walks up and asks the blond for her driver's license.<br />The blonde convertible driver searches through her purse in vain.<br />Finally she asks, "What does it look like?"<br />The blonde police officer tells her, "It's that thing with your picture on it."<br />The blonde driver searches for a few more seconds, pulls out her compact, opens it and sure enough sees herself.<br />She hands the compact to the blonde cop.<br />After a few seconds looking at the compact, the blonde cop rolls her eyes, hands the compact back to the blonde convertible driver and says,<br />"If you would have told me you were a police officer when I first pulled you over we could have avoided this whole thing."

Oh yeah they did. In Camarillo, CA. We knew it was a chain from Texas. There were a few in my home county, Ventura County. The one in Camarillo isn't there anymore. Boy they sure did make good burgers. A great first job!<br />Are there still Whataburgers in Texas?<br />Bassy

Re: Q&A 1/15-1/22

On every corner it seems Bassy.Well I'll be dipped.I had no idea there were Whatabugers in Cal.They are a decent hamburger,but like everything else it seems,not as good as they used to be when only a few Whataburgers existed.From hamburger stand to a large corporation.Whataburger is a testimonial to what one mans idea and hard work can blossom into.Sorta like Wendy's.<br /><br />BTW,Corpus Christi is where it all started.Back in 1950.Harmon Dobson was the guys name.
